  Re: LEGO Factory Updated
 
(...) I've now played with it some, and while I have some gripes with the LDD interface (let me know when it has an ldraw IMPORTER) I managed to cook up a spacey little fighter for only 16 bucks. It'll take a few days to arrive from Denmark, but I'm (...) (20 years ago, 8-May-06, to lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  LEGO Cases
 
Has there ever been a compilation of the various cases sold by LEGO...either by themselves or with kits? Can anyone point me to a place? Thanks... Joseph (20 years ago, 8-May-06, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: LEGO Factory Updated
 
(...) Hi Jonathan, There didn't seem to be a way to see the bricks but I've downloaded the software and the range is quite good. Of special interest to you (and John Neal) is that they have dark red 1x2 bricks (some plates too). I did a test with (...) (20 years ago, 8-May-06, to lugnet.general, FTX)

Yeah, so I have no clue what this thing doesn't like about my main computer, because it works on my laptop. Wonkiness aside, looks like a big step forward for LDD and the community. -Stefan- (20 years ago, 8-May-06, to lugnet.general, FTX)

  Re: LEGO Factory Updated
 
(...) I saw that and started jumping for joy. That's frikkin' sweet. Sadly, Lego seems to have decided that broadband does not qualify as "connected to the internet." Presumably, LDD only works on a computer hooked into a dialup connection. Which (...) (20 years ago, 8-May-06, to lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: LEGO Factory Updated
 
(...) Thanks, Kelly. Is there a way to see what the brick selection is, that you (or anyone) is aware of? I am hoping for a wider range of bricks. (ie: introduction of bricks/colors previously unavailable in bulk or factory) Jonathan (20 years ago, 8-May-06, to lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  LEGO Factory Updated
 
(URL) As mentioned last month, LEGO Factory has just now been updated with quite a few improvements - including individual part pricing rather than by-the-bag pricing among several other things. There's a new LDD (v1.6) released, which also runs on (...) (20 years ago, 8-May-06, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, lugnet.cad, lugnet.trains, lugnet.announce, FTX) !! 
 
  Help! Can no longer post to LUGNET...
 
Help! A few weeks ago I changed part of my profile on the site. Soon after this I could no longer post to Lugnet. Every time I try, I get a "New User Signup Error" - as if the system does not know who I am. But, I can still log in.... I sent a few (...) (20 years ago, 8-May-06, to lugnet.general)

  Re: pics of 4896, and other new sets
 
(...) Yes, some very nice looking sets coming out! (...) The way I see it (another anti-bley person here) is if I'm gonna get a set just to display, then I'll just leave the bley in it. Either it's on the shelf or in its box - it won't get absorbed (...) (20 years ago, 2-May-06, to lugnet.general, lugnet.year.2006)
